• Stop TSB from raising monthly fees for accounts during Covid Crisis
    During the pandemic we have seen how the financial playing field has shifted. TSB are acting like profiteering opportunists on the back of what is a truly for critical time for the public and they have done so by raising the monthly fees for overdraft accounts. As a customer of TSB, a £1400 overdraft one is now expected to pay £40pcm with none of the charge going toward reducing the debt. Secondly they still owe the public all the tax money that was used to bail them out. This petition is an opportunity for TSB to act with some respect for the conditions we are facing today.

  • Bring back the 209 bus service
    My name is Nathan Hodgson and I am passionate and determined to bring about positive change in and around Morley. One of the campaigns I am currently fighting is regarding the 209 service. After speaking to local residents, they have informed me about their struggle to commute to Leeds since the cancellation of this service. This particularly effects the elderly residents who relied on the service to take them to Leeds and have since had to walk over the moor onto the main Whitehall Road. This is not only an unreasonable ask in terms of the route but also threatens the livelihoods of older people who used the bus stop as a social hub and the service as a way of connecting with friends and the wider community. It is imperative that the service is back in use or further isolates a community who once had the bus as a necessary outlet for both travel and socialising. We are calling on Arriva to provide this service once more, or at the very least bring forward a solution to this issue by changing a different service to accommodate the residents of Drighlington.

  • waitrose refusal to repay covid related government funding
    The UK Chancellor announced in March that all retail businesses would be given a business rates holiday for 12 months in order to help businesses who were in trouble because of COVID. Supermarkets, have seen sales rise and have all made increased profits during during UK lockdown periods. On 4 December, 6 of our largest supermarket chains (Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda, Morrisons, Lidl and Aldi) agreed to pay back the government Covid-related support they received earlier this year (a total of almost £1.81bn) Waitrose have so far refused to follow suit. Legally they have the right to choose to retain this money, but they cannot justify the decision in the grounds that their business was in trouble because of Covid.

  • Provision of Compensation For Wrongful Imprisonment Of Innocent Individuals
    This petition is important because the actual ramifications, perception and knock on effects for innocent individuals that for whatever reason find themselves held on remand in prison for weeks or months can be quite severe and life-changing. Many lose their jobs, friends, family, access to their children and much more. It is simply just not good enough for the police to be able to imprison individuals, without the appropriate evidence out of malice or lack of skills whilst they conduct their investigations. Only to then rule no further action and the individual is left violated, unfairly punished, subjected to mental and sometimes physical trauma whilst in jail. The criminal justice system must either get better or be fairer. I can confirm that I have personally been through the above for no other reason than that of my colour and the fact that I lived in a middle class part of the UK. Hitherto, I had never even been arrested, but found myself labelled as a criminal and imprisoned with 6 potential offences that were then all proven to be false and/or fabricated. I now am unemployed, spent my birthday and Fathers' Day in jail. My wife served me my divorce papers served to me in jail and restricted access to my two beautiful children. I also lost friends and family contacts.

  • Protect Vulnerable Refugees in the UK
    This will prevent vulnerable people being left in a state of limbo for prolonged periods of time, will reduce the burden on the taxpayer and allow a small number of asylum seekers to support themselves and their families while contributing to the economy. Those who are allowed to stay in the UK, will find it much easier to become part of British society if they have been given the chance to work.

  • Listen to our children
    Children who have gender dysphoria have already fought enough battles without having basic human rights also removed. The self harm and suicide rate is already shockingly high due to bullying and long waits to be seen at Tavistock and I fear it will now increase as children will be forced to go through a puberty that feels alien to them. We want the decision of hormone blockers to be decided by the child, gender clinic, endocrine clinic and the parent/carer, not by a judge that does not know the child and who has limited knowledge of transgender issues.

  • Serious about climate change then stop expanding airports.
    Every time an airport expands it increase its carbon footprint and increases the flights that come in and out of this country. We already have some of the busiest airports in Europe for the size of the country. How can Boris Johnson be serious about leading the reduction of climate changing emissions if he does not call a halt to all airport development now? All regional airports have been encouraged to submit expansion plans under the green paper Aviation towards 2050. Local authorities must be given the power under localism to object to local airport expansions and achieve a tangible route to stop further global emissions and start to reduce our devastating impact on our planet. Small steps towards zero emissions because no airline can categorically argue that airplanes will be able to transport at the scale they do now without burning more fossil fuels in the next 30 years. Their claims about electric flights are to be welcomed but let’s encourage action on that by stopping airport expansions now until electric transport is the norm not the exception. We will choke on promises which continue to deliver pollution.
